Re: AI For good

For good implies morality, and to regulate this at a global level your either use the UN HLPF (high level political fora) arena, or specialized UN bodies, like the ITU and ISO or you use industry bodies that create standards.
In our case the most influential standards bodies are the ITU and ISO, the IT standards bodies of the EU and the 15 or so industry specific standards setting bodies for information processing, information technology, telecommunications and electronics.
Categorize AI according to industry specific use, and pick the most influential players.
In my humble opinion that would be right now:
(1) Health care, eHealth, mHealth(2) Pharmatech, biotech and agrotech(3) Fintech(4)Telecom, Internet, social media and cloud services(5) Transport, logistics and distribution(6) Manufacturing(7) Public sector services(8) (Cybersecurity and surveillance
Check each of these sector for codes of conduct or corporate governance that can also be applied to the use of AI, if not there already.
Find a common ground and then start building bridges and consensus between sectors to be translated into standards.

 Hi all, 

Just had a conversation with a colleague about AI for good; and how it’ll contribute to environmental protection, healthcare, etc etc. 

Right now, there is a diaspora of efforts in that place, and it seems that there hasn’t yet been a movement to unify the movement within the private/public sectors. Think about the UN as an ethical “governing body.”

If a concept of operations could be developed to enable “failing fast and failing forward,” with the UN driving prioritization, I believe that we can create powerful and world-changing solutions fast. 

If this is a good idea, how do conglomerate and make this happen?

Thanks
